I have now refitted the rear axle to the car and briefly driven for a short test drive.
Unfortunately the noise is just the same as before the strip down, no more no less.
It is most noticeable at 30 plus in top gear, on the over run it is quiet.
Can someone explain why if the mesh is wrong on drive that it is quiet on the over run.
Also could the noise be from the gearbox transmitted along the drive shaft.
How bad do the bearings have to be to make such noise, they were all serviceable so not changed.
Any ideas much appreciated.
